Jason Momoa Openly Accused Of Mistreating Blockbuster Movie Crew
Jason Momoa has been accused of making the set of A Minecraft Movie hostile by the streamer Valkyrae. She claims the actor yelled at crew members and treated them poorly while she was on set to shoot a cameo, making for an uncomfortable work environment. These claims have further tarnished the reputation of the movie, which was already being panned after the release of its first trailer.
The Claim
The story came to light when Valkyrae was asked by JasonTheWeen what her worst celebrity experience was as part of an interview segment. She alleged that Jason Momoa angrily yelled at crew members as they were setting up a shot for A Minecraft Movie. She described the incident as disappointing and called it “not a good work environment.”
“He was just really mad at them [the crew] that they weren’t doing something right, like setting up like the shot…He was just angry, really mad and yelling. So I was like, man, this is not a good work environment. I would not be happy working under these conditions, “Valkyrae said.
Reports From The Set Of Aquaman 2
The Jason Momoa incident from the set of A Minecraft Movie is not an isolated event. He was also accused of inappropriate on-set behavior when making Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. The actor was accused of showing up on set drunk during that production. It was also reported that he openly berated and mocked co-star Amber Heard in the wake of her high-profile court case involving her ex-husband Johnny Depp.
Will This Affect His Career?
Since his breakout role in Game of Thrones as Khal Drogo, Jason Momoa has become one of Hollywood’s biggest actors, starring in blockbusters like Aquaman and Fast X with A Minecraft Movie being his next big-budget project. The multiple allegations of unprofessional on-set behavior may tarnish that growing reputation. Between showing up drunk, yelling at crew members, and being openly hostile to a co-star on set, he’s seemingly gaining a reputation as an actor who’s difficult to work with, if nothing else.
We Might Not Know The Entire Story
Of course, there could possibly be important context missing from what happened between Jason Momoa and the crew on the set of A Minecraft Movie. A similar incident occurred with Christian Bale in 2009 when a video of him yelling at a crew member was released, drawing heavy criticism from the public before professionals revealed that the actor was in the right and only guilty of a slight overreaction. Jason Momoa’s outburst could be similarly justified with more details about what happened.
More Bad News For A Minecraft Movie
Regardless of context, or how the public ultimately reacts to Jason Momoa’s on-set behavior, the negative press is another blow for A Minecraft Movie. Despite adapting one of the most successful video games ever made, the movie has become a laughing stock ahead of its release. The trailer has been criticized heavily on social media for its bad CGI, predictable humor, and awful costuming.
Jason Momoa’s A Minecraft Movie also has to deal with the negative perception of live-action video game movies in general. The fact that it’s poorly received trailer came out so soon after Borderlands bombed at the box office drew immediate, negative comparisons. Jason Momoa’s behind-the-scenes drama only makes it harder for the movie to shake that negative buzz.
With so much negativity around the movie itself and now its star, Jason Momoa, A Minecraft Movie could struggle when it comes out next year. In an era when more and more big-budget movies are flopping, it’s not safe to assume the game’s success will translate to the big screen.
The world will find out if A Minecraft Movie can overcome all its negative PR when it comes out on April 5, 2025.
